About Frank Culley

Frank "Floorshow" Culley (Salisbury, Maryland, August 7, 1917 - April 15, 1991, Newark, New Jersey) was an American rhythm & blues tenor saxophonist. Born in Maryland, but raised in Norfolk, Virginia, Frank Culley was a pioneer of the R&B tenor saxophone in the post-WW II period. He demonstrated how the instrument could be an exciting component in the emerging R&B sound. Culley began learning the tenor sax at the age of 10 and made his first professional mark playing with Johnson's Happy Pals around Richmond, Virginia (Last.fm)
